This is especially true of cancer care. In this episode of Focus on Cancer, the first in a two-part series, Pat Basu, MD, MBA, President & CEO of Cancer Treatment Centers of America® (CTCA), and his guest, Maurie Markman, MD, President of Medicine & Science at CTCA®, discuss pharmacogenomics, a burgeoning field that studies the role genetic variants play in how the body responds to medication.
